I'm So Not Over It

July 2000 (Escorts and Atlases)

I'm So Not Over It

Show Notes

If you're in London, Gareth Gwynn is appearing with his show Cyril at the Camden Fringe from 28-30 July. Tickets are available now.

Esyllt Sears is on BBC One Wales' Live From Merthyr Tydfil which is available on BBC iPlayer now.

Esyllt Sears grew up in Aberyswyth, but what does she remember of one of the most audacious crimes committed in the town during the summer of 2000? That's when £70,000 worth of pages from antique atlases were stolen from the National Library of Wales - but how did they do it? And how long does it take for anyone to notice a 17th Century map has gone missing? We also discuss the naming of the Ford Escort and, bringing it to the present day, the latest goings on in Cafe Diana. The article is here, should you be interested in the details.

In some ways, his is a little bit of an unofficial "Part 1" since, next week, we'll be joined by Charlotte Berman from The Traitors where we'll touch upon July 2000 all over again with the launch of the first Big Brother UK - And who better to lift the lid on reality TV than someone who spent several weeks in The Traitors Castle?! (Surely an upgrade from the Big Brother House).
